Ola Electric Plans To Launch Move OS3, New Accessories, & 200 Showrooms

Previously, Ola Electric had announced its plans to launch the Move OS3 during the Diwali festival, and the latest software update is likely to bring better battery management and some new features as well.

Coming to the accessories part, Ola Electric currently offers accessories such as customised helmets, footrests, centre stands, protection guards and grab handles for both Ola S1 and Ola S1 Pro electric scooters. However, Ola Electric planning to expand its accessory list in the coming months to support its customer requirements.

It is also worth mentioning that the growing number of Ola electric scooters will soon be supported by more than 4,000 hyperchargers across the country as the company plans to install all by the end of this year. These hyperchargers will allow the Ola electric scooters to charge to its 50 per cent capacity in just 1 hour and 20 minutes.

In recent months, Ola Electric has been able to rectify most of its production delays as the number of production has been increased to meet the demand. As a result, Ola Electric has been able the re-launched Ola S1 electric scooters as per the schedule (September 07 onwards).

Coming to the Ola S1, Ola Electric has re-launched the Ola S1 electric scooter in India. However, the new Ola S1 electric scooter comes with a few invisible changes which include the new MoveOS 2 from the factory floor itself.

Thanks to the new MoveOS 2, the updated Ola S1 electric scooter comes with a new ARAI-certified range of 131km per full charge. The Move OS2 update has also resulted in performance improvement as the new Ola S1 electric scooter can now achieve a higher top speed of around 95km/h.

In comparison, Ola Electric had claimed that the S1 electric scooter can only do 121km on a full charge and the top speed was rated at just 90km/h - Both of these figures are clearly inferior to the new Ola S1 electric scooter with the MoveOS 2.

Comparing the improvement, it is remarkable to realise that such an improvement in the performance of the electric scooter was made with a simple software upgrade. Mechanically, the new Ola S1 remains similar to the model revealed last year with its 3kWh battery pack and 5.5kW electric motor (Rated power). Features-wise, the new Ola S1 gets all the features of the Ola S1 Pro except for the Cruise Control.

Ola Electric has also tied up with multiple banks to facilitate loans for the Ola S1 and Ola S1 Pro electric scooters, and these banks provide exciting offers such as loan processing fee waiver, low EMI and a few more.
